通过免疫治疗与纳米技术整合应用在皮肤癌治疗中的最新进展

Skin cancer is one of the most lethal cancers today, posing significant challenges to public health and potentially impacting global health and economic stability. Due to its high rate of incidence, innovative and effective treatments are crucial. Among these, immunotherapeutic approaches have emerged as transformative, offering new hope by harnessing the body's immune system to target and eliminate cancerous cells. Immunotherapy has changed the treatment landscape for skin cancer, providing options such as checkpoint inhibitors and adoptive cell transfer therapies that specifically enhance immune activity against tumors. Despite these advancements, the broader adoption of immunotherapeutic modalities is challenging due to concerns about their toxicity and variable efficacy. The side effects, such as immune- related adverse events, can be severe and sometimes limit their use. In response to these challenges, nanotechnology in cancer treatment has gained significant attention.

Nanotechnology- based approaches show promise in improving the delivery and effectiveness of cancer therapies, particularly for skin cancer immunotherapy. Nanoparticles can deliver therapeutic agents directly to tumors, minimizing systemic toxicity and enhancing treatment precision. These strategies also boost the immune system's ability to target cancer cells while overcoming the limitations of current immunotherapies.

This review explores various anticancer therapeutic approaches for managing skin cancer, focusing on immunotherapy and its challenges. It highlights how integrating nanotechnology with cancer immunotherapy offers a promising avenue for enhancing treatment efficacy and safety. The review also provides an overview of recent advancements in skin cancer treatment, showcasing how these innovative strategies are paving the way for more effective and less toxic therapeutic options in combating one of the deadliest cancers.
